Bronze chainbody

Bronze chainbody is a tier 5 free-to-play item worn in the body slot for melee, with a high alchemy value of 250 coins. The simplest way for an Ironman to get Bronze chainbody is to buy it: Corporal Boothe's Armoury in Burthorpe sells it for 60 coins, and 5 other shops stock it too.

“A series of connected metal rings.”

Ironman verdict

2 monsters drop it, and the best one is also the easiest: Dragith Nurn (level 26), at 5/262 (about one every 52 kills). You can also make it yourself: it takes 1 Smithing and gives 75 Smithing XP, using 5 × Bronze bar. Other sources include New Varrock guard captain and Zombie (New Varrock). Making ten takes 50 × Bronze bar and gives 750 Smithing XP. One recipe uses Bronze chainbody: Oxidised chainbody. It is worn in the body slot at tier 5 as melee gear; compare it with every other piece on the Body list. Bronze chainbody is available on free-to-play worlds too. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 250 coins, 190 more than the shop price, before the cost of the nature rune.
